Re: just arrived from hobbylink japan

Hello,

I'm wondering something about the Nissan Pulsar EXA 1982...

Is this car close to the Dtasun sylvia or the Nissan 240 ??

I've been searching for years a car that could offer the possibilty to be modified into the Nissan 240 RS Gr. B...!?

Thanks

Phil

Re: just arrived from hobbylink japan

The Pulser is different from the Silvia. Fujimi's S110 Silvia H.T. RS kit is the better start for the 240RS Gr.B.

It's called a Wakaba mark, new drivers in Japan must display it on their car for the first year of driving.



Elderly drivers carry a teardrop shaped one called a Kareha mark.

as over here just recently in the last few years new drivers have to display a "P" plates for a year after thay pass the driving test (similar to learner drivers have to display "L" plates), supposedly to restrict new drivers from driving high performance cars in order to reduce road accidents.

where do u put that wakaba mark as u mentioned on the cars?

if anyone wants them, i'll cut it out and post it off wherever u are.

I'd love to put that decals on a modified R-34 GT-R kit! I don't want the decal though, that was just a thought I had to share.

Re: just arrived from hobbylink japan

Those "new driver" badges, are now an accessory in the JDM world. Nice set to have for all the tuner builds.

I bought these from hlj.com and are really happy with em . . .

Youre lucky yours came with the kit.
